Judging by the recent trend in this thread it's apparent that the applicant pool is drying up. It seems that those with a merely passive interest who only half expected a call are getting their chance. Additionally, I'm surprised by how many of these recent candidates demand to be spoon fed the gouge, almost as if it were owed to them, versus actually doing a little research and spending time reading through the hundreds of posts already addressing the subject.
Downloaded the other day, nicely done, thank you!

Applied in Early sept, went to a job fair in Denver at the end of September and got the call first week in Oct. I'm an ex military c-130 driver/ T6 UPT instructor with 3k total with 1000 pic turbine. I think the job fair was the key. Been pushing off the interview till my wife finished with school!

It was the job fair. I had heard that unless you go to a job fair they don't really consider you. The guy who looked over my resume circled my total time and PIC and put "Mil" next to it.

DFW isn't moving at all on the FO side. Seven months in and my relative seniority is virtually unchanged. Plan 12 months+ to hold a line in DFW. DTW and FLL are much more junior followed by ORD and LAS. My seniority would hold in line in LAS right now. Of course that could and probably will change soon.

I think most new hires are getting DTW and FLL. DFW and LAS are going senior, but this is all relative. You're not going to be waiting years to get any base as a FO, maybe a few months.
Congrats on getting hired, I'll echo Wisconsin's sentiments, if you can study prior to coming down for training, the better off you'll be. Personally, I concentrated on Limitations and Memory Items, Checklist responses and Controls and Indicators.
For our military guys, congrats on getting hired, Memory Items aren't Boldface, it took me awhile to figure that out.

I understood the minimum for military pilots to be 3,000TT rather than 4,000.
